Enchiladas

Scale:1x

Notes

  • All of the ingredients are optional, basically just put in whatever you want.
  • The best enchi sauce is the Hatch red or green sauce. It's expensive but suck it up.
  • I use uncooked tortillas but really any will do.

Ingredients

  • chicken
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 can black or pinto beans
  • 1 onion or leek
  • ½ cup rice
  • tomatoes
  • saffron
  • 2 cans enchilada sauce (Hatch red or green)
  • tortillas, flour or corn (a bunch)
  • cheese, cheddar or whatever (a bunch)
  • paprika or chili powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Make your spanish rice — 1/2 cup rice, 1 cup water, some diced tomatoes, and saffron.
  3. Butterfly your chicken and rub it with salt and paprika/chili powder.
  4. Get a cast iron hot with some oil in it and pan fry the chicken.
  5. Cook your veggies — throw the onion, bell pepper, and whatever else into a dutch oven.
  6. Once the veggies, rice, and chicken are cooked, dice the chicken and combine it all in the dutch oven (or a bowl or whatever).
  7. Put some enchi sauce in a dish (~1/2 can) and one-by-one dip your tortillas in, coating both sides, add filling, and roll in a baking dish.
  8. If you have a lot of filling, squish the enchis together to make more enchis until you run out of filling.
  9. Pour the rest of your enchi sauce over the top and spread evenly, getting it into the cracks and stuff.
  10. Put your cheese on top.
  11. Throw it all in the oven for 30 minutes.
  12. Eat enchis until you are mildly ill.
